AFSCME

Dear Hiring Committee,

I am writing to express my interest in the Staff Representative position with AFSCME. With a strong foundation in financial services, housing, customer service, and administrative support—combined with my current role as Recording Secretary for Local #2916—I bring both professional versatility and a genuine passion for union representation and advocacy.

Serving in my current union leadership role has ignited a deep interest in the interpretation and application of bargaining unit contracts. I’ve developed a keen eye for analyzing documentation, thanks in part to my education and hands-on involvement in union matters. My ability to navigate complex information under tight timelines, along with my collaborative experience working with diverse individuals, has prepared me well for the demands of this role.

I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to take my union involvement to the next level with AFSCME. I believe strongly in the values of solidarity and worker empowerment, and I am committed to supporting and representing members with integrity, diligence, and clarity.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I welcome the opportunity to further discuss how my background aligns with the needs of this position. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

In solidarity,

Kayla Zawistowski
